I Love My Wii Fit

My husband bought a Nintendo Wii gaming system a week ago.
I just love it!!!

I have to tell you, we have not had this much fun together in a long time.
We laugh, we talk, we encourage each other, we jump around
and get goofy. It's a blast.

But the best part is Wii Fit.
We installed it yesterday and I've been on it non-stop.
Hula hoops, step aerobics, jogging, yoga and games are the only things
I've done and there's so much more.
It definitely raises my heart rate and gets me breathing hard.
My legs feel like jello right now from my jog.

The best part is that I was able to add it as my strength training
and cardio tracker at Spark People.
(And I've lost to more pounds for a total of 14)

Mario Go-Karts is loads of fun too.
All three of us pull out our steering wheels and race.
I'm usually in last place, but I don't care,
it's fun and we're all playing together.
And how great is that?
At least during the winter when we're all cooped up inside.

12 Pounds Gone

In the past 3 weeks I've lost 12 pounds.
Yay me!

I can't really see the loss yet, but I a coworker asked
last week if I've lost weight. She said my face looks thinner

I've been tracking all my calories and nutrition at Spark People.
I love that place. It's totally free, the nutrition tracker is awesome
and the support in great.

Hopefully my Wii Fit will be here soon
so I can get my butt moving and sweat off more pounds.

I'm shooting for 50 pounds by June 30.
After I reach that, I want to lose 30 more.
Hopefully that will put me into a size 10.
Wish me luck.

I Just Feel Depressed

That's it! And my family doesn't get it.
Well they get it, but they think I'm silly
because it's over the internet and board issues.
Like internet friends aren't real friends.
And I value every friend I have, internet or not.

I've been to the point of tears the last few days because
an online friend I cherish left a board I'm on because of
drama that happened there.
Another left also that I was becoming close to,
that was a neat connection because she's from a town close to me.

Now other decisions are being made there that I also don't agree with.
I've done so much there that I almost feel like this board belongs to me.
But I need to pull myself back and remember it's not my board,
I just help run it.

I feel depressed every time I click into there to check on things.
I feel like people are being manipulated into doing what others want.
I feel like I'm being left out.
I feel like I really don't want to post.
I feel like an idiot feeling like this.
I feel like I don't fit there anymore.
I feel like I'll lose some great friends if I stop going there.
I feel like I'll explode and tell someone off if I stay.
I feel like crying again.
I feel like nobody gives a shit.
I feel like that board "is" a huge part of my life.
I feel like that board "was" a huge part of my life.
I feel like crawling in bed and never getting up.
I feel like I hate everything right now.
I feel tears running down my cheeks.
I feel like such a loser.

Not Really An Update

I've been telling myself over and over,
"you need to update your blog, you need to update your blog".
Well, this is it.
But only to say I have a terrible migraine.
It's hard to concentrate on anything,
so I'm going to bed.
